This is an exquisitely rendered schematic of my desk:
You can see that I had difficulty fitting everything on a 3×5 card. Any system that be can’t comfortably diagrammed on an index card is too complicated to be user friendly, so I’ve taken about 5 minutes out of my busy day to solve the problem for the whole world.
Step1: The entire table surface needs to be a wireless charging pad. We’ll need some magic and/or fairy dust to make monitors, laptops, and external hard drives draw enough juice wirelessly without frying our nether regions.
Step 2: Every device pictured needs to communicate via secure, terabit fast, tiny wireless transponders. Also everything needs to work as easily as today’s USB. The “easy use” part will probably require more fairy dust than the actual wireless technology.
Step 3: Magic happens
Step 4: Profit!
No…more…hanging…wires! Also, no more unplugging a million things just to take my laptop off a desk. Of course any desk at a coffee shop, hotel, or office should have the same technology to complete the circle. What do you say Apple? Can you have this for me by July?
